GS hits the sweet spot for me, no way will I get a IS, LS is too big for me, GS is just the perfect compromise
The 5 series, A6 and E-class has a size difference when compare to other models in their lineup. The GS is the same size as the ES350.

the ES is a Camry with wood and leather and more powerful engine. It's a boring family sedan with some silly trappings.
Class = Size

Almost everybody I know mistakes the GS for the ES.

Those pics are killler!!!!!!! Maybe by the time i rack up enough money. Lexus will come to their senses and create a coupe similar to Jack's photos!

Dont get me wrong, i LOVE the GS sedan and will really think about buying it when im ready to buy my second car. (Because the LS is tooooooo pricey, the ES is...well..not my cup of tea and the IS 2nd gen is too common; i see them EVERYWHERE!) But if Lexus actually makes a GS-C and looks similar to Jack's photos, i'd def. go with the coupe!

I really hope Lexus corporate is watching this thread. I would kiss their feet if they made a GS coupe. Thanks for the photoshops.

If you guys look at the sales numbers of all the Lexus coupe ever made, you will understand why this will never happen.

I am sure the people at Lexus would like to know that as well

Maybe it is because poeple buy Lexus are more practical than MB owners.
